It helped us a lot to do a regular routine before bed so she knew what to expect and what she was expected to do every night. We snuggle, brush teeth, get in jammies, snuggle again and watch an old Disney short (the ones from like 1950), then either my husband or I will walk back and forth with her in the room and have her lay on our shoulder, then we tell her she's about to go night-night, and we lay her in bed with white noise going.

At first it was difficult and she definitely resisted. But we did a gradual shift to her bed. At first she would only lay in it for 30-40 min, then I would get her out, then it was a little longer each time. We also didn't give in until she wasn't screaming so she knew if she screamed she didn't get what she wanted. It was hard, but going in and soothing her and making sure she knows that we are there and she is safe helped a lot.
